On 8/30/17, your lawyer for dog bites in the Lehigh Valley was contacted by a man who was recently attacked by a pit bull in Allentown PA. As the man was walking by a house on North 8th Street, the pit bull owner could not control his dog even though it was on a leash, and the aggressive canine bit the pedestrian. Unfortunately, by the time the Allentown Pennsylvania Police Officers arrived, all the eyewitnesses to the unprovoked animal attack had fled the area. Medical treatment was provided at Lehigh Valley Hospital. Attorney Thomas J. Newell is hopeful that PA Dog Law charges will be filed versus the negligent pit bull owner.
